Has anyone used a chicken shredder tool like this?

I love my kitchen aid but hate dragging it out. That looks like a handy tool.

I just saw this used on a TT video. It seemed ok, but I would almost rather use 2 forks?

I've also seen a smaller garlic grinder and I thought what a PITA, I would think a garlic press would do a better job.

One of the ladies I watch on YouTube uses one snd I’m a kitchen gadget person but I just use two forks to make mine. Maybe if I did larger amounts but then I would be more likely to use my KitchenAid. I have never used it for this as I don’t want to dirty it when I can easily use two forks. That said it seemed to work pretty well. I think she had that one but now has a different one that she got on Amazon.

I would either use 2 forks for a small amt or get out the KA. I don't need another tool for sure.

Though I like my garlic grinder! I don't know what happened to my garlic press, I either dice it with a knife or use the garlic grinder thing. In general I don't like a bunch of single purpose gadgets.

I cut the chicken in large chunks and then break it up with my hands. I don’t like one purpose gadgets and gave away the claws because they were awkward.

I have a small kitchen too and a love for gadgets.   

I would say it's probably equal amounts of time that I use either the KA or the bear claws or forks. Whatever is most handy because I'm lazy.  I do have to admit that when I use the bear claws I have to stop for a sec and think how would I shred this meat if I was a bear?

I'm quite sure I didn't pay $20 for it, and that I got it at TJMaxx, but this would have been several years ago. Mine says Made In USA, which I do support when possible.

Anyway, mine gets used a lot bc I like Italian food and I don't use jarlic either. It tastes off to me. You do have to use a fork or something to get out the little pieces that get stuck in the teeth, but that's no different than a press. This is easier than the press (I have occasional tendonitis in my wrist that can make the press very difficult for me to grip sometimes!).

ETA if I needed another one I'd try this one, lolol:

Everyone on TikTok seems to use this device, but I kind of shake my head when I see it. It’s easy enough to shred with 2 forks if I don’t feel like washing the KitchenAid bowl.

Zee. Love the Dracula one. Lol. Thanks I do have the garlic press from pampered chef but you can only fit one clove in there and either one of those would be even better.

I have this and LOVE it! I have to make shredded chicken every week for my dog and this made my life sooooo much easier!

Not a fan of one-purpose gadgets. Two forks or even a fork and a good knife work just as well. If I'm shredding a lot of chicken, then I use the KA.

It would be more stuff to store in my kitchen. 2 forks works for me. For me it's an issue of storage.

Zee, Thank you for sharing the Ototo brand. They have the cutest stuff! I just ordered the little crab spoon rest for my team's white elephant party.
I don't really eat pasta, but I really feel like I need the pasta monster!

He's clearly never used one. . 

I guess it would depend how often you needed shredded chicken and if you want to drag out big appliances that can't be tossed in the dishwasher. It is a great time saver. If the meat isn't super well cooked, it works much better than two forks as well.

To be fair, my kitchen space is way more than I need so having this shredder is just a win-win for me.
